The 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor—which debuted earlier this year as “the most powerful street-legal Bronco ever”, ironically didn’t share the official power and torque figures. Instead, we were simply told that the Bronco Raptor is gonna pack more than 400 bhp. It’s been 4 months and Ford’s official website still doesn’t mention those figures. However, Ford CEO Jim Farley has now shared the secret via Twitter:
The idea for #BroncoRaptor was an Ultra4 racing-inspired Bronco built for high speed off-roading & extreme rock crawling.
The target was 400 horsepower.
Now it’s official: 418hp + 440lbs-ft of torque!Congrats to the @FordPerformance team for taking #BuiltWild to a new level! pic.twitter.com/l46WV8zjqF
